| Abstract | This study examines students’ investigates: 1) students’ attitudes toward the requirement to express their opinions in a reading classroom; and 2) the manner in which they interact with one another via Moodle. This study was conducted with 18 Thammasat university students who were taking EG 222 during semester 2/2012. The research methodology included Discussion Board posting demonstration, think-aloud protocols, interviews and questionnaires. It was found that students’ attitudes towards the activity were complex. Students realized that it was beneficial to them, especially when they considered that they needed the skills to express themselves, to listen to other peoples’ opinions and to modify their own opinion in the workplace. However, the students who lacked self-efficacy tended to remain silent because they needed more time to create their responses. Thus, not many students derived full benefits from classroom discussion. With Moodle, in contrast, the students did not have to respond spontaneously. They were also influenced by a collectivist culture and had a strong desire for approval from their friends and teacher. These two factors motivated them to employ strategies that helped them create effective responses on Discussion Board. |
